That info will help quite a bit and delray I've been trying to figure out the gender of it. It's hard to tell who makes what sound sometimes.

Whe I buy from pet shops I play a video of coco singing and I see the girls tweeting and looking around and then you hear loads of peer sounds then I see who seems to make the longest pree

And the tail thing seems to work for me but some females can have pushed up tails through sitting close to bars of cage so it isn’t always accurate
Okay thank you, that is very interesting. And once you get a society, if it is a male will sing within the first few days of getting it? As if it doesn't sing within the first few days then you can assume it to be a female?

Then the one I have is almost definitely a male. The day I got him and put Oreo in the quarantine cage, I caught him singing to my zebras within like an hour or so. Does that method work in store?

FinchLover&Breeder I never see them singing in store unless if there isn’t many in there when there’s loads in there they don’t tend to sing play a video of one singing on YouTube and watch the reply they hear a new bird and go mental some start singing then in competition
